I did some reading about unionfs (the man page was quite helpful, especially the bit about the slippery dog ;) and decided this was for me. I am aware it's not supported (it's already panicked my machine twice (or more) for which I have sent reports -- they were pretty specific to what I was doing though) fully but there seems little other way. I ran into troubles when I found that the permissions of the ``base'' were not maintained. This is somewhat annoying as stuff like mailqueues, etc. just don't work. I know I can change them from the upper-level jail, but I don't want to have to do this. Does anybody know of a ``base'' jail solution? Is it with unionfs? Do permissions work? I must confess I didn't really understand nullfs so I don't know if that is my friend (although it looks like it is not). Any help on this would be much appreciated. Thanks very much, -lewiz. --=20 I was so much older then, I'm younger than that now. --Bob Dylan, 1964. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -| msn:purple@lewiz.net | jab:lewiz@jabber.org | url:http://lewiz.net |- --AqsLC8rIMeq19msA Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.3 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQE/ak5NItq0KFQv7T8RAlJqAKCyHjFXPxNF7y8YJw2qB2egEpvYtQCg9yTM p1NYdTpxnY5b9SObmDAFy70= =OO5v -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --AqsLC8rIMeq19msA--
